I picked RIGHT, but not FAR RIGHT ... and agree with many ... it's hard to slot yourself at times.

I'm more left when it comes to social issues, but right when it comes to how I think a government needs to be run.

I am one of those guys that could change though, if the certain policies were dropped from the left side.

At the end of the day I think the biggest reason I lean right is the fact that in North American politics (from my paying attention years) right leaning presidents and prime ministers seem to get more done. They make more mistakes and have more controversy, but seem to actually be carrying out a plan and not just wasting space looking to get re-elected.

My thoughts.
